Exciting self propelled rides - These self propelled scooter rides are really great. Going down Signal Hill into the town and then back up to Table Mountain and meeting in town again was a nice change.

Fab experience - Really well organised. A great experience. My younger kids are 9 and 12 - & to be honest, were a bit scared! But the tour guide was amazing and patient with them. Amazing scenery and a wonderful experience. We did x2 different tracks. So pleased we found this tour.

Brilliant, fantastic and memorable - Group of six of us aged 6-60 went on this brilliant activity down the mountain. Children under 9 or under 1.35m had to go on a scooter with an adult which is fine. The track is bumpy and steep in places but the scooters have excellent brakes and you quickly learn to adjust your posture to your speed, to slow down or go faster.
Wonderful scenery and views as you scoot down the mountains (Signal Hill and Table Mountain) and friendly helpful guides.
Fantastic fun had by all, definitely recommended!

Very fun way to see Table Mountain - My 20-year-old daughter and I had a great time on the Scootour. It's a good way to see the area around Table Mountain while having fun. The scooters go fast in some sections but the big tires make them easy to ride and stable. We never felt like we were going to hurt ourselves. We got two rides in different areas of the mountain. Our tour guides, Bradley and Gilbert, arrived on time and were very friendly.

Thrilling!!! - At 80 years of age my head and heart wanted to do that run down the mountain but my
body intervened after I tried it for a quarter mile, knowing I probably would not have
been able to use my shoulders and arms for a few days. However my son and grandson sailed down without any difficulty and declared it a 10 star experience!!!

One of the best activities in Cape Town to do with the kids - I was honestly a bit nervous about getting on a scooter and riding down a mountain so I came onto TripAdvisor beforehand to read the reviews.
I must say that the reviews do not do this experience justice. My boys absolutely enjoyed the thrill of riding their scooters downhill and the views were absolutely breathtaking!!! We have an amazing city and wow what a way to see it!

Good scootering but let down by customer service - Scootering itself was good fun. Not so good was parting with R250 for the photos taken by the guide/driver and then never receiving them - no response to my emails asking for photos either. Be wary of this.
